Corporate Insolvency Administrator - #2190061

Location: Manchester

Salary: Competitive, dependent on experience

Experience: Minimum one year in corporate insolvency, including some pre-appointment exposure

Ready to build on your corporate insolvency experience and become more involved in the early stages of an appointment?

Imperium Financial Recruitment is recruiting a Corporate Insolvency Administrator to join a busy firm of Corporate Insolvency Specialists based in Manchester.

This opportunity would suit someone with at least one year’s practical corporate insolvency experience who enjoys a varied workload and wants to develop their technical knowledge. Some exposure to pre-appointment work is essential, although you will not be expected to manage the entire process independently.

Working closely with Insolvency Practitioners, managers and senior colleagues, you will assist with corporate insolvency cases from initial information gathering and appointment preparation through to ongoing administration and closure.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Assisting with pre-appointment work, including gathering company information and preparing supporting documentation.
• Liaising with directors, accountants and other advisers to obtain financial records and outstanding information.
• Supporting the preparation of Statements of Affairs and associated schedules.
• Assisting with appointment documentation, creditor communications and decision procedures.
• Maintaining accurate records of pre-appointment activity and monitoring key deadlines.
• Progressing an allocated corporate insolvency caseload under appropriate supervision.
• Preparing correspondence, reports, notices and statutory documentation.
• Liaising with creditors, directors, solicitors, agents and other stakeholders.
• Assisting with asset realisations, creditor claims and investigations into company affairs.
• Updating case management systems and maintaining complete, orderly case files.
• Supporting case reviews, distributions and closure procedures.

You must have a minimum of one year’s experience within corporate insolvency and some practical exposure to pre-appointment work.

You will also bring:

• A working understanding of corporate insolvency procedures, particularly Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidations.
• Experience assisting with information gathering or documentation before an appointment.
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage competing deadlines.
• Good attention to detail and an accurate approach to written work.
• Clear, professional communication skills.
• Confidence following up on outstanding information and keeping tasks moving.
• A proactive approach to learning and the judgement to seek guidance when required.
• The ability to work effectively within a busy team.

A relevant insolvency qualification, such as the CPI, or progress towards one would be advantageous but is not essential.

• Build on your existing experience within a busy specialist practice.
• Develop your involvement in both pre-appointment and post-appointment work.
• Work alongside experienced insolvency professionals.
• Gain exposure to varied corporate cases and take on greater responsibility as your skills develop.
